Locations in Banjo-Kazooie

These are the locations as they appear in Banjo-Kazooie.

Hub areasEdit

Name Description
 
Spiral Mountain acts as a training level and is featured as the home to many characters, including Banjo and Kazooie. This is where a player must learn all the basic moves. Banjo's House lies on the outer part of Spiral Mountain. The area serves as a tutorial level before entering Gruntilda's Lair.
 
Gruntilda's Lair is the main hub world, meaning that each level can be accessed from here. Gruntilda's Lair is a large structure that houses a variety of ecosystems, each being based on a hub location for every level. Gruntilda's Lair also leads to the tower, which features the final boss battle against Gruntilda.
